I haven't just been baking lately, I've been doing plenty of cooking for my family too. I've tried out some really delicious recipes and (of course) taken pictures.

I'll be honest…I love to cook, but I might love taking pictures of food even more.

Sometimes I'll make a recipe just to take a picture of it.

lol I'm not normal

Anyway, I just posted about all of the Christmas fun I've been having so I don't have much new to say, but I did want to share these pictures and recipes with you!

My husband loves chili dogs. Though he is quite a sport about putting up with a never-ending barage of new recipes, there are two things he consistently asks for- chili dogs and tacos. I'd yet to find the perfect chili recipe for hot dogs, so I decided to try a new one. This one came pretty close to perfect and is going to be my go-to recipe when he requests chili dogs in the future!

I've been busy. Really busy. My house is a disaster, and now that I think I'm done with holiday crafts and baking it's time to get caught up on housework…but before I do that, I have to share with you what I've been up to!

First, the treats- this month, our Allrecipes Allstars partners were Nestle and Ladies Home Journal. We were asked to participate by baking for the World's Biggest Cookie Swap. The World's Biggest Cookie Swap is pretty neat- two cool reasons to enter the World's Biggest Cookie Swap on Pinterest. 1) For every board created, $1 goes to Cookies for Kids Cancer. 2) You and a friend might win an all expense paid trip to NYC to have lunch with Ina Garten!
